[Archie's Mom]

I just have to post to tell the world how proud I am of my little guy -- he's a hero in my book. I live in a very nice condo building that recently has had a series of troubling break-ins. Last week, there was another attempt. At about 11 a.m., someone knocked on my front door (though I know there was no one else home in the building at the time and you can only get into the interior of the building by key). My little tiger barked up a storm and ran to "protect" the front door. I could tell from his bark that that something was wrong (not just a neighbor knocking on the door). Something told me not to go to the door. Minutes later, someone tried to break down my neighbor's back door. I heard the noise and called the police. I was terrified, but I know that Archie will always let me knoe when something's happening.
